Sacramento Republic FC coach Paul Buckle, wife Rebecca Lowe welcome baby son

Sacramento Republic FC may have lost 1-0 to the Portland Timbers 2 on Sunday, but the news wasn’t all disappointing for coach Paul Buckle.

Edward Christopher Buckle, the son of coach Buckle and his wife, Rebecca Lowe, was born shortly before the match. Buckle has been with Lowe in Connecticut since early last week awaiting their son’s arrival. He was due April 11.

Lowe is host of NBCSN’s English Premier League coverage.

The congratulations to the couple rolled in on social media.
